The Engadget Show - 027: Nokia's Stephen Elop, Qualcomm, NASA and more

Man, do we have a show for you this month. It's a veritable Thanksgiving feast of gadgety goodness. Brian and Tim kick things off by taking a looking at the Kindle Fire, Nook Tablet, Kobo Vox, a slew of Samsung Galaxy Tabs, the Motorola Razr and the HTC Rezound. Next up, Michael Gorman visits Lockheed Martin to check out the Orion spacecraft the company is building for NASA.

Brian and Terrence put iOS, Android and Windows Phone to the test with some mobile operating system newbies, and Tim sits down with Nokia's Stephen Elop to discuss the company's struggles and successes. Qualcomm's Raj Talluri pays us a visit in the studio to show off his company's snazzy new S4 chip, and if all of that wasn't enough, Brooklyn's Milagres plays us out in style.

Hosts: Tim Stevens, Brian Heater
Special guests: Stephen Elop, Raj Talluri
Producer: Guy Streit
Director: Michelle Stahl
Executive Producers: Joshua Fruhlinger, Brian Heater and Michael Rubens
Music by: Milagres

This week's issue of everyone's favorite weekly magazine (we checked, it's legit), Engadget Distro, brings with it our very first Q&A, and what better subject to start things off than Mr. Stephen Elop?

The Engadget Interview: Dr. Charlie Miller

Dr. Charlie Miller -- a man who has been covered extensively here at Engadget -- snagged a doctorate in Mathematics from the University of Notre Dame. He spent five years working on cryptography for the National Security Agency. And, after heading into the wilds of security analysis, he was the first to find a bug in the battery of the first MacBook Air, various bugs within Mac OS X and the Safari web browser and assorted bugs within iOS itself, all while racking up thousands of dollars in hacking contest prize money.


PWN 2 OWN over: MacBook Air gets seized in 2 minutes flatThe Pwn2Own trifecta: Safari, IE 8, and Firefox exploited on day 1Linux becomes only OS to escape PWN 2 OWN unscathedLast week, this came to a head, as Miller created a controversial proof of concept application that both proved the existence of an iOS security hole as well as got him expelled from the App Store's developer network. Given that he's driven Apple Inc. somewhat nuts over the past few years, we sat down with the good doctor to see how he felt about Apple, iOS, security, technology, sandboxing, the pros and cons of modern security and the ups and downs of one of the weirdest career paths for any aspiring technologist today.
